Trust & Safety Lead - LATAM (BBBH376342) Mountain View, California
Salary: | USD35 - USD38 per hour |
Role Summary:
We’re looking for a Spanish-speaking Trust & Safety professional with strong familiarity in the Latin American digital ecosystem. This is a foundational hire—someone ready to roll up their sleeves and help us build from the ground up.
As our first T&S team member focused on LATAM, you'll operate as both a strategist and an executor: reviewing video content, shaping regional policy, training moderators, and helping scale vendor operations. You should be comfortable toggling between high-level thinking and daily moderation work—someone who can see the forest and the trees.
This is a generalist role with the potential to grow into regional leadership. You’ll be setting the tone and structure for how we keep users safe and compliant across Latin America.
Key Responsibilities:
Moderation & Enforcement
- Conduct and scale video content reviews in Spanish using industry standard safety policies
- Identify and escalate high-risk content, including child safety, graphic violence, and local cultural risks.
Policy & Localization
- Localize existing content moderation policies for LATAM-specific legal, cultural, and linguistic contexts.
- Provide feedback on enforcement thresholds for sensitive categories (e.g., nudity, grooming, self-harm).
Vendor & Training Support
- Help identify and evaluate Spanish-speaking vendor partners (BPOs).
- Assist in onboarding and training vendor moderators to ensure consistency and quality.
- Lead Spanish-language training modules and quality review standards.
Operational Readiness
- Act as the go-to regional lead for Trust & Safety needs in LATAM.
- Collaborate with Product, Legal, and Data teams to operationalize appeals, enforcement messaging, and escalation processes in Spanish.
- Track regional moderation performance and flag policy gaps or inefficiencies.
Qualifications:
- Native or fluent Spanish speaker with strong English proficiency.
- 2–4+ years experience in Trust & Safety, content moderation, or online safety—preferably with a focus on Latin American markets.
- Experience working with moderation vendors, BPOs, or outsourcing partners is a plus.
- Comfortable with fast-paced, high-ambiguity startup environments.
Preferred Skills:
- Prior experience scaling Trust & Safety operations or launching a new region.
- Knowledge of risk mitigation strategies, appeals workflows, or quality review frameworks.
- Strong written communication skills in both Spanish and English.
- Familiarity with LATAM data privacy laws, platform liability frameworks (e.g., Brazil’s Marco Civil), and regional child safety risks.
